Days 51, 52, 53, 54, 55--Last week of IQP

Monday we had a very long day.  We didn't end up leaving work until after 6 since we had to finish the results, conclusions, and recommendations sections of our paper. On Tuesday, we worked on our presentation.  We had to cut it down a lot since our first time running through it lasted about 50 minutes.  We got it down to 40 after cutting it down, but we still need to cut down some.  However, we know pretty much what to cut from the presentation.  On Wednesday, we worked more on the presentation and left work early for Worker's Day, which is similar to Labor Day in the U.S.  This consisted of a huge festival in the park near my apartment, with several stages, kiosks, and lots of food.  I went with Hannah at 2 and we walked around a bit, but she had to go back to work on her project.  I then stuck around for a bit, trying to reach Camilla, who was supposed to be there as well.  After walking around, eating, and taking pictures, I finally found Camilla.  She was with one of her friends, who was nice.  We sat on a blanket by one of the statues in the park and we talked about stuff.  Sometime later, three Irish guys walked over and started talking to us, but Camilla and her friend had plans for dinner so we didn't talk long.  At around 6, I left with Camilla and her friend, and I headed home to the apartment.  Thursday and Friday, we finished editing our paper before submitting it to our advisor for a final review, after which we will submit it officially to WPI.  We also worked on cutting down our presentation some more.  After work, my coworkers and I had some refreshments in one of the meeting rooms, and after about an hour I went home to relax.
